AWESOME!

I loved the book, but I believe I liked the audible version even better! It does leave you on a cliffhanger though and dying for the next one.

Fantastic duet multi narration & Amazing Story

6/5⭐ Extra Star Read Fantastic, addicting new series. I had very high expectations for this book going in. Heather Long plus this genre of book is a dream come true for me. I really love Heather Long's writing especially The Untouchables series. And she did such a fantastic job with the story it has exceeded my already high expectations.

Heather Long has such a distinctive way of storytelling and creating characters. I honestly can't put my finger on it but she sucks you into a story and makes you completely lost inside of it. She writes in a way where everything is interesting. She writes such a variety of characters with their own personality and traits that are very distinctive. I cannot pick a fav MCs...okay maybe Jasper but like it was hard to just name one.

Emerson is such a strong FMC. She's has an abusive past/start of the story and has such inner strength. She fought her way through the situations the best she could had plans, and was/is so discipline in her craft. And when she is "Kidnapped" she shows strength throughout the situation as well. No very realistic way.

I love that she is strong yet has has vulnerabilities. I love that she has been abused but she has a fighting spirit. That dichotomy with this character. She shows a lot of inner and outer strength in these situations. There are a lot of ways to be strong and there are a lot of ways in which we need to lean on others. I love when a book portrays stories and characters in complex situations with complex emotions.

This is a great force proximity story I love the mystery of why the savage vandals have taken Emerson. It's such a contradiction and it's a contradiction for Emerson, they're treating her well, they like her, they're obviously very angry with her abuser, and they are protective.

But they won't let her go, she's still a captive and she has to come to terms with that. So is it like Stockholm syndrome or are these good people? Or like bad good people? What are their motivations? Emerson is definitely wondering that. It's so well-written with some things i didnt coming especially with one of the characters.

I am so drawn into this world and I can't wait to no more. There's so much to unpack still I can't wait for it, yet this was such a satisfying read. There's a bit of a Cliffy it just leaves you wanting more. Heather doesn't keep you waiting long between books either.

I really love this book and I read it from start to finish, I was so sucked in. I love this story and I love this genre from Heather Long. This is my new series addiction & anticipation read. I'm so excited for the rest of the books in this eight book planned series.

So many questions!

I really don't understand why they took Emerson. No real answers we given and I felt the story line just kept repeating itself.

Awesome Series!!!

I wasn't sure about this author but this is a well written series!!! Poor Emerson and the life she lived as a little girl. Her uncle is a nasty pedophile. All the men are so good to her. Rome is by far my favorite! I am on book 8 and it's completely held my interest and every book is intense. I listen to a lot of books and this in now a top 3 series for me. The narrators are fantastic

Entertaining story

I enjoyed this series very much. My only hang up was Noel Harrison’s characters. I found it difficult to imagine Jasper as a young adult when his voice sounds like he’s much older. That being said I was hooked from beginning to the end.

Deliciously Slow Burn

A great introductory episode to a riveting, steamy series. I fell in love with each man as they were introduced and explored. Their personalities are unique and varied, none a romance novel stereotype. This book caught my attention with vivid characters and exciting overarching storylines. Now I'm addicted and 5 books into the series. Yes, it's slow. Yes, it's a cliffhanger. But YES, it's worth the read. And keep reading if you want all the answers.

Don’t do it!

DNF. Made it to chapter 9. This book is so unnecessarily descriptive. There is so much inner monologue and barely any dialogue between the characters. So if you’re like me who hates a lot of inner dialogue that just goes over the same/feelings stuff over and over again, then I’d definitely skip this book. Disappointed I wasted a credit on this book.

Its just kinda weird...

The many characters were confusing. The male narrator sounds like old men. Not men in their 20s. The continuous refresh back to molestation is cringe worthy. I dont know.... its just meh.
